Exclusive Cardigans for Women



Cardigans rank among the most versatile clothing items and are found in almost every well-curated wardrobe. Unlike pullovers, cardigans, which are open at the front and can be fastened with buttons or a zipper, are both practical and fashionable. Also known as 'Cardigan,' a term originating from the English-speaking world, it accompanies stylish women with numerous outfits, easily adaptable due to its versatile nature. The term 'Cardigan' actually traces back to the Earl of Cardigan, who used this innovation during the 19th-century Crimean War to warm his soldiers. Besides its warming properties, cardigans are cherished for their timeless designs. At MADELEINE, find your model in different cuts, materials, and colors, flattering your figure and accentuating your style.


Knit Patterns and Materials


In addition to hip-length models that can be closed with buttons or straps, we also offer long cardigans in coarse or fine knits. The various options also differ in pattern and finish. The classic cable-knit pattern appears in numerous variations of fashionable fine knitwear. Sometimes used for a small decorative element, other times adorning the entire cardigan. Cardigans in an ajour style, on the other hand, are characterized by their delicate lace-like patterns, appearing particularly light and airy. Large patterns, such as sophisticated jacquard designs, ensure the cardigan stands out, dominating the look. At MADELEINE, select exclusive cardigans crafted from high-quality fabrics with meticulous attention to detail. Alongside classic materials like cashmere, merino wool, and cotton, our shop offers cardigans made from blends incorporating viscose and polyamide. Modern fabric combinations ensure our cardigans in fine-knit quality look chic, flatter the feminine silhouette, and are comfortable, snug, and durable. Ultimately, you should always feel comfortable in your cardigan.


Women's Cardigans for Your Body Type


Are you searching for a women's jacket that complements your color palette, conceals minor problem areas, and makes you look feminine and attractive? At MADELEINE, we offer cardigans in various colors and cuts, making it easy for you to find the perfect model for your style.
For instance, women with a larger abdomen or fuller upper arms may benefit from batwing sleeve models. The fabric falls softly, disguising small problem areas. Gradient color transitions are also helpful: cardigans that are lighter at the top and gradually darken towards the bottom are recommended for camouflaging belly bulges. In general, women's cardigans in dark colors and long lengths elongate the silhouette visually. Vertical stripes can also be helpful if you wish to create an illusion of a longer figure.
Long cardigans are also perfect for women who want to cover their buttocks. The cardigan falls over the midsection and buttocks, concealing this problem area. Similarly, shoulder embellishments divert attention from hips and buttocks. For petite women, short cardigans that end at the hip are suitable, visually elongating the leg area.


The Women's Cardigan: A Combination Wonder


Fashionable cardigans can be used in versatile ways to complete a stylish outfit while providing cozy warmth. For instance, ajour cardigans, including those with patch pockets, complement classic, more casual jeans superbly. Therefore, they are preferred for leisure wear. Beneath your cardigan, you can wear elegant blouses as well as T-shirts or tops. Here, depending on your taste or the prevailing temperatures throughout the year, you can opt for thicker or thinner fabrics, long sleeves, or short sleeves.
Cardigans with jacquard patterns or in a mélange appearance, however, exude extreme elegance and can be well-paired with trousers, costume skirts, or similarly elegant garments. Hence, they are particularly suitable for the office. Textured knit cardigans, on the other hand, are ideal for everyday wear, as well as for festive occasions or travels, depending on the design.
When choosing colors and designs, pay attention to the cardigan's compatibility with existing outfits or garments: Those who prefer colorful, heavily patterned tops and trousers, leggings, or skirts should opt for plain cardigans as a complement. Conversely, simple tops pair well with boldly patterned cardigans, allowing the cardigan to shine.
At MADELEINE, you'll find cardigans for women in a wide range of fashionable designs and sizes: from size 34 to 48, our shop offers cardigans for every occasion. Simply choose your new cardigan online from various colors, materials, and patterns.
